Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Gao Feng’s Trouble Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Gao Feng’s Trouble Gao Feng followed the Zhang Family guard to the Zhang Family reception room.
Upon her arrival, Jing Yan’s gaze fell upon her.
It was indeed the Gao Feng he knew!
However, the current Gao Feng seed thinner than when he had first seen her, her face showing many signs of haggardness.
“Gao Feng!” Jing Yan exclaid.
Hearing Jing Yan’s voice, Gao Feng turned her gaze towards him.
Her delicate body shuddered slightly, and then her eyes widened.
Jing Yan?
Gao Feng had not expected that the Zhang Family guest the guard ntioned knowing her would be Jing Yan.
It had been over two years since they first t in Black Wind Town within Duyang City’s domain.
But these two years, though seemingly long, were in fact not very lengthy.
Especially for adventurers, ti passed in the blink of an eye.
Adventurers ventured through one perilous place after another, with each adventure possibly taking several months.
So, a little more than two years was really just like entering the Moonlight Forest a few tis.
“Jing Yan?” Gao Feng regained so spirit.
Seeing Jing Yan, she was surprised but also sowhat joyful.
The gray mood she had before was washed away by this joy, and her face revealed a faint smile, looking extrely beautiful.
Zhang Yibing and the others watched Jing Yan and Gao Feng.
Now that the two had recognized each other, they were certain that Jing Yan truly knew Gao Feng.
“Jing Yan, my young friend,” said Zhang Yibing, “since you and Gao Feng are acquainted, why don’t you chat for a while?
We will leave first.”
Gao Feng’s troubles were sothing he did not want to inquire into, and the Zhang Family would not interfere.
Thus, he also did not want to stay here and hear Gao Feng make any requests.
Honestly, rejecting Gao Feng was also troubling for him.
“Alright, Clan Chief Zhang, please feel at ease,” Jing Yan responded, nodding towards Zhang Yibing.
Then, all the Zhang Family mbers left the room.
“I thought Jing Yan belonged to a great clan.
I didn’t expect him just to co from an unknown small city,” a Zhang Family elder said, shaking his head in disappointnt.
“But this Jing Yan looks very young, yet he managed to enter Dao Yi Academy.
He must have strong Martial Arts Talent,” another elder added.
“I still don’t know how he managed to get that many resources.
The total annual inco of our Zhang Family probably couldn’t match what he gave to Zhang Yu.
Perhaps he has even more resources!”
The Zhang Family elders discussed among themselves.
“Let’s not worry too much about it,” suggested Clan Chief Zhang Yibing after listening to the elders.
“Since he said that the resources given to Zhang Yu were just to make ands for his remorse towards Zhang Min, let’s take his word as true.
I also ntioned earlier, if he wanted those resources back, he could have done so simply.
And since he has not recalled them, he can’t bla us for obstructing him from taking Zhang Yu.”
In the room, Jing Yan and Gao Feng both sat down.
Having not seen each other for more than two years, they casually exchanged a few words.
“Gao Feng,” Jing Yan switched topics after a few sentences, “based on what the Zhang Family mbers said, it seems you have encountered so trouble?”
Regardless, he and the siblings Gao Feng and Gao Zhan could be considered friends.
Back in Black Wind Town, when he wanted to enter Moonlight Forest, it was the Fla Adventure Team that led him to Sinful Canyon.
If Gao Feng had encountered trouble that he could help with, he definitely would.
Hearing Jing Yan’s question, Gao Feng’s expression darkened.
“I have done sothing wrong!” Gao Feng seed to have lost all her strength, slumping in her seat.
“I injured Song Ming!” Gao Feng appeared even more dejected.
“Who is Song Ming?” Jing Yan frowned and asked.
Gao Feng then rembered that Jing Yan was not from Haofeng City, but a guest of the Zhang Family.
Perhaps he had never been to Haofeng City before, and naturally did not know who Song Ming was.
“Song Ming is the son of the Song Family Patriarch.
The Song Family is one of the largest families in Haofeng City,” Gao Feng explained.
“Oh!” Jing Yan nodded, having a clear idea of Gao Feng’s predicant.
“Then why did you hit Song Ming?” Jing Yan paused before asking again.
“That scoundrel Song Ming…” Speaking of Song Ming, a surge of anger appeared in Gao Feng’s eyes, making her seem fierce.
“That bastard, relying on his family’s power, is lawless in Haofeng City and has committed many misdeeds!”
“He…,”
“A few days ago, he encountered in a tavern.
Not only did he verbally insult , but he also made physical advances.
I couldn’t restrain myself at that mont and slapped him.
It seems…
I injured him,” Gao Feng clenched her teeth.
“Previously, he already harbored…
those intentions towards .
Every ti he saw , he always showed a nauseating attitude.
But I knew I couldn’t provoke him or the Song Family, so I tolerated it.
A few days ago, I couldn’t hold it in anymore,” her face reddened, and she glanced furtively at Jing Yan.
“That Song Ming needs a lesson,” Jing Yan replied, nodding and smiling.
“Exactly!
If it weren’t for the Song Family, I would have killed him long ago,” Gao Feng said angrily.
The first ti Jing Yan t Gao Feng, he knew she had an explosive temper.
Managing to hold back so often really wasn’t easy.
“He indeed needs a lesson, but…” Gao Feng sighed deeply.
“What are the Song Family’s intentions now?” Jing Yan changed the subject.
Since Gao Feng was still able to co to the Zhang Family, it ant that the Song Family had not yet made their move.
It was likely that the Song Family had proposed conditions to Gao Feng and the others.
“The Song Family wants us to compensate with five hundred thousand Spirit Stones,” Gao Feng stated.
“That Song Ming only sustained minor injuries and could recover in a few days even without using Healing dicine.
Yet, the Song Family is demanding our adventure group compensates five hundred thousand Spirit Stones.
How could we have such an amount to give them?”
“Five hundred thousand Spirit Stones?
The Song Family has quite the appetite,” Jing Yan’s eyes narrowed.
For Jing Yan, five hundred thousand Spirit Stones were trivial.
But for an ordinary Martial Artist, it was an astronomical figure.
Perhaps even the Zhang Family, a family like theirs, could not produce five hundred thousand Spirit Stones in cash at once.
“They want not only the Spirit Stones!”
“That disgusting Song Ming also wants to accompany him for three months.
Five hundred thousand Spirit Stones, plus my company for three months.
Only then will they let this matter rest.
Otherwise, the Song Family will wipe out the Fiery Fla Adventure Team.
This ti, I’ve really brought big trouble upon the adventure team,” Gao Feng continued speaking rapidly.
“I ca to the Zhang Family to ask if they could speak up for us.
But the Zhang Family is much weaker than the Song Family, so Clan Chief Zhang doesn’t want to deal with this matter,” Gao Feng explained continuously.
Hearing that Song Ming wanted Gao Feng’s company for three months, Jing Yan’s expression darkened, and anger welled up inside him.
Hearing about the demand for five hundred thousand Spirit Stones hadn’t affected him much.
But now, he was truly becoming annoyed.
Abusing power shouldn’t be without limits, right?
